Anthracene is a solid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) of formula C 14 H 10, consisting of three fused benzene rings. It is a component of coal tar.Anthracene is used in the production of the red dye alizarin and other dyes, as a Scintillator to detect high energy particles, as production of pharmaceutical drugs.
Anthracene-9-carbaldehyde is the most common monoaldehyde derivative of anthracene. It is a yellow solid that is soluble in common organic solvents. It is prepared by Vilsmeier formylation of anthracene. [1] [2] The compound is also used as a building block for supramolecular assemblies. [3]

9-Anthracenemethanol is the derivative of anthracene with a hydroxymethyl group (CH 2 OH) attached to the 9-position. It is a colorless solid that is soluble in ordinary organic solvents. The compound can be prepared by hydrogenation of 9-anthracenecarboxaldehyde. It is a versatile precursor to supramolecular assemblies. [1]
This page contains tables of azeotrope data for various binary and ternary mixtures of solvents. The data include the composition of a mixture by weight (in binary azeotropes, when only one fraction is given, it is the fraction of the second component), the boiling point (b.p.) of a component, the boiling point of a mixture, and the specific gravity of the mixture.
A Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) is a class of organic compounds that is composed of multiple aromatic rings.Most are produced by the incomplete combustion of organic matter— by engine exhaust fumes, tobacco, incinerators, in roasted meats and cereals, [1] or when biomass burns at lower temperatures as in forest fires.
9,10-Dihydroanthracene is an organic compound that is derived from the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon anthracene. Several isomers of dihydroanthracene are known, but the 9,10 derivative is most common. It is a colourless solid that is used as a carrier of H 2 as a hydrogen-donor. [2]
Acenaphthene was prepared for the first time in 1866 [4] by Marcellin Berthelot by reacting hot napthalene vapours with acetylene, and a year later he reproduced a similar reaction with ethylene as well as discovered acenaphthene in coal tar. [5]
